GENTLY in the light of the rising sun.
Those who have been so fortunate
to obtain this view under the favor
able conditions enjoyed by the pas
sengers on the Kinau, may congrat'
ulate themselves on having witness
scd one of the most magnificent
mountain panoramas in the world.
But the exigencies of the special
correspondents mission leave but
little space for going. into raptures
over nature and her attractions.
Leaving Mahukoua a little after
10 A. NJ, q run Of little over an
hour brought us 10 Kawaihae, where
we remained until noon. The time
being limited, the passengers were
unable to visit the one object If
special interest in the neighborhood,
the remains of the great IIciau or
temple built by Kamehameha in
honor of his war god, Kukailimoku,
by name. TO those who were un-
able to examine this relic of the an
cient paganism, it may he. q salts
faction to know that the ugly mug
of the divinity himself can be seen
in the museum at Punahou College.
From the deck of the steamer we
could distinctly see one or more
streams of water coursing down the
gullies in the hills back of the land
ing, while long trails of light rub
bish consisting of dried grass and
similar materials stretched here and
there on the surface of the sea.
This circumstance is mentioned here
on account of its rarity, Kawaihae
and all the region about being most
emphatically a "dry and thirsty
land"
The sail down the Kona side of
Hawaii is a pleasure to be long re-
membered. On this occasion every
thing combined to make the day one
OF unalloyed pleasure. The sea,
blue as sapphire, and just crinklcd
by the gentlest of breezes, the bright
sky and pure air, the well-appointed
and swift sailing ship, the genial
company on board, the shores OF
Hawaii, now green and again
scanned with ancient lava flows,
sloping upward from the sea to the
forest line or lost in the low hang.
ing clouds all combined to make ii
the very perfection of voyaging, c
bit of poetry let into the sober
fabric of every day life.

REPORTED RENEWAL or ACTIVITY AT
TIE LAVA FLOW.

A gentleman named Mckenzie,
who came from Mahukona by the
Kinau, has stated to our informant
that he was up on the Kohala range
of mountains on Thursday night,
and that from that point there
could be distinctly seen a strong
glare in the sky over the site of the
recent eruption, and clouds of
smoke or steam also quite brightly
illuminated. This display was by
no means as brilliant as that seen
before the eruption subsidized, hut
was of the same character and to
all appearance in the same place.

There seems to be a growing demand
all over the country for Government
telegraph system. The Western Union
Telegraph Company seems TO have the
facilities for buying up every opposition
company which is started, and its high
rates are a heavy burden upon those who
are compelled 10 use It's lines. If the
Government owned a system of telegraph
lines there would be an Office in every
county rs there is now a postollice and
there would be uniform rate OF charge
for all distances just as there is now on
letter postage While the telegraph
business is monopolized by private indi-
viduals they will not establish lines ex-
cept Ill localities where the business
would justify them in expecting profits,
and thinly-settled counties can never
expect to have the benefits of the tele-
graph, but if the Government were run
ming telegraph lines in connection with
the post Office there would he, as We have
already said, an Office III every county.
We see no reason why the Government
should not have the telegraph as part Of
the postal system The principle Is the
same, and the Government should afford
It's citizens theamplest facilities for COM
municating with each other. -Ports-

There is n club OF thirteen young wO-

gymnasium fitted M, and several of the
members have become proficient with the
gloves One Of the fair pugilisis is re-
markabiy clever boxer and a hard and
sharp hitter Her knowledge OF the art
OF seif-deftnce was of Great advantage to
her in little adventure that happened
the other night She was returning
alone from La Sale avenue, where She
had been calling on friend, at 4 O'Clock.
On approaching the corner Of Clark
street she was accOsted by strange
man. whose appearance proclaimed him
t. be rough" The young woman
only walked Oh the faster for this, but
was obliged TO confess afterwards
that she grew nervous. As she crossed
Clark street she observed that the villain
was following her. After having passed
Clark street, in the comparative darkness
Of cross street, the villain hurried for
ward and accostcd her again, at the same
time having his hand on her shoulder.
he got response this time. Quick as q
fash she turned, shot out her left, and
planted her dclicatel -Rloyed fist, as firm
and true as steel, square into the wretch S
face THIS staggered him, and before
he could recover she had swung her
right upon his car and he dropped into
the gutter. Then the brave and lovely
boxer gave a shrek and ran for home,
norye!css and pale as a ghost, and ar
rived there in state OF collapse. 1t was
days before she recovered from her
fright. But she still keeps mp her boxing.
